BORESCOPING:
We can provide detailed photos and reports on most turbine manufacturers main components. In most cases, this service can be conducted onsite within 24 hours.
AEP UPGRADES
Recapture lost energy production with innovative technology and specialty add-ons.
Vortex Generators and Gurney Flaps
Because wind turbine blades are exposed to extreme loads, they are designed on a compromise between aerodynamics and structural stability. Specialty add-ons can increase annual energy production (AEP) by up to 6%.
STALL STRIPS:
Reduce stress cracks caused by edgewise vibration.
SERRATIONS:
Decrease the sound of a turbine in operation.
LEADING EDGE PROTECTION:
Turbine blades all eventually have leading-edge erosion if untreated, which can cause a performance drop of 4% and consequent loss of revenue.

In addition to providing wind turbine services, Pronto Solutions is an expert in managing challenging vegetation control issues. We selectively eliminate noxious and invasive weeds where you don't want them, leaving the desirable vegetation where you do in order to keep your wind farm safe and effective.

We want to keep your worksite free from fire hazards and venomous animals by eliminating their safe harbor. We monitor and measure risks or potential hazards in order to get our job done in a safe and effective manner.
